RE: The Secret Number to DTube/Steemit Mastery - Blogging & Vlogging Development
@altcoinpost
I heard about that, but it is a very vague number as it is not the same on the micro and macro levels its not the same with any kind of talent and profession. What says though is it needs a lot of time. But claiming any number like 10,000 hours would be nonsense. Bye that logic it would hav taken me 1.14 years to master life. 😋 Still i didn't master it, maybe never will. It's maybe applicable to things like learning to play an instrument but it's not applicable to compound professions that include many other skills/professions on the micro or on the macro scale. And then there are many thing that go with technology and as fast as technology changes you never master anything really, you always have to throw away a large portion of what you have learned and learn the new technology that supersedes the old which you never really mastered and if you did it's worth nothing now. If you stick to it you will go down. I always admired people who could do great Macromedia/Adobe Flash films and interfaces, but it's gone. Nobody wants flash anymore for good reasons. I think we could just say you have to put much effort and work into something, but you will never master anything as there is always room to improve.
Just read this. I'll address it as soon as I finish dropping off my son :)
I agree with you. I think the 10,000 hour mastery is for very specific physical skills, like athletes learning a specific sport, gamers learning a specific game, driving a specific car. Only in that sense do you master something. Becoming a master of something requires it to not change or be altered in any way because, like you said, if you have that foundation but you have to wipe out a good portion of what you've learned and start over to learn something new, you are technically no longer a master. That doesn't mean you aren't great at it or maybe even the best.
